Used in or around gearboxes, differentials and motors, oil filters are essential components in automobile hydraulic systems. Each type of filter has its own characteristics with respect to cleanliness, pressure drop and flow rate. Through standardized testing, these characteristics are determined according to ISO 3968 in order for manufacturers and consumers to be certain of each filter’s specific integration within the overall system.
